I've always been doing business and because of that I need a phone which can actually keep up with my work and I found out about Maxx Mobiles recently launched MQ515, new black bar phone. It was released on December 1, 2010 and I just fell in love with it. It only cost me around 3,800RS!

It weighed 55.5 with a dimension of 110MM x 60MM x13MM. This operated at the frequencies of GSM 900 / 1800 MHz and has TFT display screen. It's a QWERTY keypad that suites me for sending emails or writing important files in my phone. Aside from the internal memory of 81.7MB, I can even use the MIcroSD flash of 1GB for storing purposes. This is actually dual sim so I can put two Sim card with two different networks for my convenience. The phonebook can also hold up until 2000 entries and has extra long battery life for those days that I constantly need communication for my appointments and such. Aside from calling, it can also be used for SMS as well for MMS.

As for its features, Maxx MQ515 has 2 megapixels camera that can be zoomed which is great for taking photos for my business journal. If I get bored I can listen to the radio with recording or just play music like mp3 and mp4 in my headset or via speaker. I can also check out website because it has a wap browser and has java support for games. For the internet services, this also supports social networking sites.

If you’re not happy with the color since it’s only available in black. You can also try the MX820 which basically have the same features but has the lighter shade of grey. Although the price is not yet announced, I bet it would range the same like the MQ515. Unlike my phone it can only store 1000 phone entries and that it weighs 67.9g with dimensions of 112.3 x 52 x 14MM and As for its camera, it has 3.2 mega pixels camera with the many zoom level. For the rest of the other features that I mentioned with MQ515 all of it is the same with this phone. The only thing that made this more upgraded is for the appearance, color and the camera.

I was recently looking for a new phone when Motorola Droid Xoom caught my attention. It's was just released recently around July of this year, 2010. The cost of this is around $250 to $280 which is not a bad price because of all the features that it has. This phone looks very sleek, chic, classy and stylish because of the wide touch screen which is the currently the trend to phones. At 13.7, it is one of the thinnest QWERTY sliders so if you're into typing, blogging or texting you can just use the keypad instead but as for the color it is only available in black though. Checking messages is made easier via threaded view t friendly. It has long battery life that can be used for 385min and standby time up until 270 hrs. It features android OS, v2.1 (eclair) that can be upgradable to v2.2 and a TI OMAP 3630-1000 1 GHZ processor.

If you're a person on the go, this would likely fit you because it has Wi-Fi for browsing the internet for emails or just checking Facebook. It also comes with a applications for GPS, Google maps, Google search, Google talk, Gmail, YouTube, adobe flash 10.1, a document viewer, organizer and can also do voice commands if you're simply driving your car. It can view Microsoft word files or PDF files. This can come very handy with business or office function. It also comes with MIcroSD of 16 GB upgradable to 32 GB for mass storage. You also hook this to your personal computer via USB data cable or even connect to a TV output that can be useful for presentations.

If you're the type who to shoot moments at the palm of your hand, this can be done through with its high resolution camera that has 5megapixels with dual led flash. You can also take note that Motorola Droid Xoom as a zoom up to four times and has face detection. You can also edit you're stuff by using tools for cropping, rotating or geo tagging and can view various types of images like BMP, PNG, GIR or JPEG. Of course, if it comes with a powerful camera feature, it would be expected that it comes with a player that not only can play mp3 but stream video with a DVD quality that has a 24 fps capture. Motorola Droid Xoom also supports radio too. Because it has a wide screen, it would be great if you could watch a movie or even play games.

My second new game this year - qw - has been released for Maemo 5 today. Version 0.1 (a tech demo, not a proper final release) gives you a sneak peek on the gameplay with 9 different levels and four-player support (if you hook up an external USB keyboard or get together really close for some N900 keyboard multiplayer action). The gameplay is simple: You need to control your player cursor (either via touchscreen gestures or keyboard) and enclose areas of the game with lines in order to fill them with a colored image. Beware of the enemies, as they will destroy your lines and split your points in half. If you enclose one or more small enemies, your points are multiplied.

A .deb for Maemo 5 is available from the qw homepage and packages for Symbian are also available. Try it out and send some feedback :) Enjoy!

Hello, again! I've missed you all in my absence . . . I've been dwelling in holiday and family (and snow!) here in Georgia. Hope everyone else's Christmas was as beautiful as mine was. My best gift? Inches of snow!

on my mama's back deck on Christmas Day

excuse the poor picture quality--camera was dead!

But last night came the real excitement as the Saints took on the Falcons in the Georgia Dome. Note that I am a major Saints fan currently in Falcon territory! And given that I grew up in Georgia, you can imagine my facebook news feed was brimming with this kind of slander:

Hunter Willett:﻿I hope the aints fans are wearing protective gear cause there will be some shankin going on tonight if they want to talk that who dat BS. They will walk into the dome tonight happy and hoping for a win and they will leave with a loss and a knife in that ass.

I mean whoa, man, a little agro there, huh? In any case, I quietly basked in giddiness and glory since my boys were the first team to take down the Falcons in their own stadium this season. WHO DAT!

We had at least 20 people over to my dad & Amy's house, and I believe I was the only New Orleans fan in the room . . . but I wore my Love Dat! shirt, fleur de lis earrings, gold glitter shoes, and my Who Dat scarf, and I cheered my boys on proudly.

I'm off to lunch with the family, but I'm eager to catch up on all of your blogs and hear about your holidays!﻿

I've blogged about it already, and even showed some code during an Interview at Nokia World, but there have not been any releases of That Rabbit Game so far, mostly due to Ovi Store QA not understanding what Optification means and requesting that the version number of the application appears somewhere in the app UI (after 15 days in QA). I've made the requested changes, added scoring and pushed new releases (of version 1.2) for both Symbian and Maemo 5 to Ovi QA.

Until the game gets published on Ovi, I decided to release packages on the website so you can download and enjoy the game right away - and maybe even provide some feedback. Please don't mirror/redistribute the packages, but link directly to the website. Download That Rabbit Game for Maemo 5!

Controls are via accelerometer (to tilt the rabbit head left/right) and via touchscreen (tap to flap your wings - the longer you tap, the harder the wings flap). The goal is to lose 10 coins in 90 seconds by getting shot 10 times. After that, the next goal is to lose the 10 coins in as little time as possible. Yes, you control the rabbit head, and not the crosshairs.

Updates and changes will be announced via @thatrabbitgame on Twitter, so follow it and tell your friends. Enjoy!

The LG Select MN180 features a clamshell design with dual color displays. The main displays measures 2 inches and supports 262 K colors. It is large enough to compare with other mobile phone for seniors plus the color support and solid resolution (76X220) is suitable for the elderly with weak vision.

As soon as I took my seat on the airplane, right next to a couple decked out in head-to-toe Harley Davidson gear (man with long gray ponytail, excess facial hair, Harley Davidson wife beater, and tattoos; woman with excess eyeliner, Harley clothes, Harley ring), I knew I was headed home. I'm not kidding when I say that I heard them talking about their dog . . . named Harley.

My mama picked me up at the airport, and now I'm writing from my childhood bed (and at 3 am Georgia time). There's even a framed picture of tiny baby Claire on the nightstand. :)

It feels good to be home, and I can't wait to see all my peeps. Plus, my stepmom and I are going to get Brazilian blowouts tomorrow--woo hoo for shiny, frizzless locks!

But before I left California, I went to a baby shower for a very special lady. Many of you know my dear friend Heather from her blog, A Measure Of . . . . She was one of my first friends in grad school (I met her in my very first poetry workshop as an MFA student!), and we've never looked back--through several relationships, a few wild and mildly embarrassing stories, and trips around the world. After a few-year stint in Patagonia, Chile, I finally have Heather back with me! And now she has a husband and a baby (belly) in tow.

On Saturday we convened at The Hobnob, one of the East Bay's finest brunch establishments (my opinion might be swayed due to their $8 bottomless mimosas). It was so wonderful to see Heather again (although harder to hug her now!) and to finally meet Serkan! He's just as sweet and adorable as she'd described.

soon-to-be-parents, Serkan & Heather

And because I was so thrilled to be hanging out with Heather again, I didn't even mind that I was the only single person at the table, and the only woman drinking (I had four mimosas)! Cheers to that, right?

Heather, Heather's belly, and me

She's a pretty damn cute pregnant lady. She's all belly and she carries it so elegantly! I cannot wait to meet lil man Yalin. There's no doubt he's gonna be a stunner, what with his lovely & peaceful parents. Move to Oakland, Heather! You'll pretty much have an on-call auntie-sitter! :)
